Dr. Sonny James Grogan age 64 of Blue Ridge, GA died suddenly on the ninth hole of Whitepath Golf Course doing what he loved with his friends on Tuesday April 7, 2015. Dr. Grogan was born May 22, 1950 in Forsyth County, son of the late, Loy and Ruby Floyd Grogan. He was a chiropractor and the owner of Ellijay Chiropractic. He once said he would like to be remembered as someone who laughed and who cared. He was a loving husband, dad, papa (Oh, how he loved being a papa ), brother, uncle, mentor, friend and doctor.
